Ideally, yes - but if you’re a conscript you really don’t have an option of where you are going to get assigned to. If your commander deems you necessary for the front lines - that’s where you’ll go.

The factory manager isn’t going to protect you like some modern-day Schindler, they’ll likely pocket a bribe for turning you over. This is just how things are done in current-day Russia.

Ukraine has been going after these factories with drones and sabotage. Factory manager can't protect workers from that.
